About The Project

Wicker Park Studio

Wicker Park Studio is where Kestrel's design-build work shows up closest to the surface — 1,400 sq ft studio build-out in which every joint, sightline, and light source was resolved on paper before it was built. The result reads as considered rather than decorated.

Kestrel held a single point of accountability throughout: one project lead, one schedule, and a documented punch list and warranty package at handover.

How It Was Built

The Same Four
Steps. Every Time.

No project skips a stage, and no stage starts before the last one is signed off.

01

Discover

We listen, walk the site, and define real scope before anyone draws.

02

Plan

Drawings, permits, and a schedule built on actual trade lead times.

03

Build

One accountable crew, weekly updates, no disappearing act.

04

Deliver

Documented punch list, warranty package, and as-builts at handover.
